Book Review - Glimmer Girls: London Art Chase

About the Book
In London Art Chase, the first title in the new Faithgirlz Glimmer Girls series, readers meet 10-year-old twins Mia and Maddie and their adorable little sister, LuLu. All the girls are smart, sassy, and unique in their own way, each with a special little something that adds to great family adventures.

There is pure excitement in the family as the group heads to London for the first time to watch mom, famous singer Gloria Glimmer, perform. But on a day trip to the National Gallery, Maddie witnesses what she believes to be an art theft and takes her sisters and their beloved and wacky nanny Miss Julia, on a wild and crazy adventure as they follow the supposed thief to his lair. Will the Glimmer Girls save the day? And will Maddie find what makes her shine?

My Take on the Book
My eldest is a tween and she loved this book. I really appreciated the fact that it was faith based and that it really incorporated a lot of the values that I want to instill in my daughters. On top of this you get to have a ton of great characters that have some great adventures in London, what couldn't be better for a tween girl to read, right? The book is full of moral teachings that teach the reader subtly one page at a time. The book has a lot of heart and really makes you feel good as you are reading it. The main character looks at the world in a fresh way and I love how curious she is about the world around her. So be ready to be engaged and to stay on your toes, as this book will keep you on the edge of your seat!
